Unfortunately, #PowerBI does little to help you compare changes across versions, or indicate "who made what change, when?" 😭
But don't be discouraged! @sqlsocialite.bsky.social has a solution using Git and the .pbip file format. 😄

Struggling with Paginated Reports which is served by DAX, with parameters, and my gosh why does it always break the report when I make a minor change to the DAX... It seems I have to delete the parameter all over again to get it linked back up... is this just me...?

Chilling at the library with 5 1/2 month old, “Bridge” at the local library. He is in a “Close” between my legs and is quite settled. He is not reacting to his environment. I am just boarding him for just a few days, but training doesn’t cease.

Salsa needs to walk on many different surfaces in his early years so that she is comfortable navigating the world in the future, with a human in tow.

I have had “Salsa” for the past week. She’s 14 month old Guide Dog in Training with the BC & Alberta Guide Dogs. Her original border came down with Pneumonia, so I’m helping out until Salsa’s Puppy Raisers return from Vacation on the 10th.
